Is understanding our brain the key to humanity of the future? From advancing medical treatments, understanding how our environment affects our mental health, making choices about our food or practicing self-care, the key to a better quality of life could be harnessing our brain power. Meet three psychology researchers investigating our brain, mind and behaviour, and join the panel discussion to hear how these Sheffield scientists are helping us to unlock the secrets of our brains to improve ourselves. Have your say too, bring your questions or share your ideas on how our lives and our health might be different in the future.

If you are doing science A levels right now this is a great opportunity to speak to some scientists, and find out more about their PhD research. It’s a great example of extra curricular activity you can use in your university application.

This talk might be of particular interest if you are currently studying psychology or are interested in a career in psychology, medicine or biomedical science. The talk is open to everyone though, so you don’t need a background in these subjects to join us.
